The relationship between flowers and bees has evolved over millions of years. Pollen collected from flowers is the bee hive’s main source of protein. But did you know that this protein can be just as beneficial for the human race as it is for the bees in their colonies?

Bee keepers are able to remove some of the pollen from hives without harming the bees or disturbing their routine. Percie du Sert bee pollen is derived in this way using pollen harvested only from wild flowers grown in areas far away from heavy crop spraying. The pollen is eventually packed with nitrogen in sealed containers and frozen. Unlike dried pollen which looses many of its properties during the drying process Percie du Sert is a living food keeping most of its original nutritional qualities.

Pollen may be frozen and defrosted without significant deterioration. This is due to its low water content and the fact that it does not harbour any pathological bacteria.

Infact, this process imitates nature itself! The pollen from Willow trees blossoming in mountainous regions in February often become frozen during the night and then defrost during the day. This is then collected by the bees with no shown signs of impairment.
